NIB’s Sourcing Certification Program provides comprehensive instruction in using and applying the tools, resources and research needed to locate passive candidates and their contact information. The sourcer then “hands off” this information to a team of recruiters who carry out the qualification, interview, and placement process.

Positions exist within companies where they support recruiters as well as at many executive search/recruiting agencies. The professional sourcing career field offers some unique aspects.

The focus of the program is to provide individuals with the training to become certified in Sourcing and assist participants with job placement.
